Title:
A semiconductor memory device and a method for controlling the same
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6221806
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A semiconductor memory device includes: a memory cell array including a memory cell, which includes a ferroelectric capacitor and an access transistor which is a first conductive type transistor formed in a second conductive type well and includes a source or a drain connected to one electrode of the ferroelectric capacitor; and a control circuit which controls a potential applied to the second conductive type well. The control circuit applies a fixed potential to another electrode of the ferroelectric capacitor and applies a second potential being a forward voltage with respect to a junction between the first conductive type source and drain and the second conductive type well when erasing data in the memory cell, and applies a third potential not being the forward voltage with respect to the junction between the first conductive type source and drain and the second conductive type well in a normal operation.
